Our Mission
Movement, Creation,
and Compassion
RHEA was born from a love letter to movement, to creation, and to the Earth. Every piece we make honors the bodies that wear them and the animals we protect.
For the Animals
RHEA was built on a simple belief: you shouldn't have to choose between feeling powerful in your body and protecting the most vulnerable. Fashion and fitness have historically exploited animals, from leather and wool to cruel testing practices.
We decided to do things differently. Every piece of RHEA activewear is 100% vegan, made from recycled materials, and crafted with intention in Los Angeles. But our commitment goes beyond what we make, it's about what we give back.
That's why we collaborate with The Gentle Barn and donate 7% of every single purchase to their life saving work. When you wear RHEA, you're not just choosing sustainable, cruelty-free activewear. You're directly funding animal rescue, rehabilitation, and sanctuary.
What We Stand For
100% Vegan
No animal products, ever. From fabric to thread to packaging, every element is cruelty-free.
Recycled Materials
Our signature fabric is made from recycled nylon (OEKO-TEX certified), giving new life to materials that would otherwise end up in landfills.
LA Small-Batch
Every piece is ethically made in Los Angeles by skilled manufacturers who are paid fair wages. Small-batch production means less waste, more intention.
Real Bodies
Designed and tested on real women with real movement. XS to XL grading that actually fits the way bodies move and exist.
Every Purchase Makes a Difference
"Every purchase is a vote for the world you want to see. I wanted to create activewear that empowers women while protecting the animals who cannot speak for themselves. With RHEA, you get both."— Sarah, Founder of RHEA
